  1. 1. Techniques to Improve Energy Efficiency on Heterogeneous Multiprocessors under Timing and Quality Constraints

    Författare :Muhammad Waqar Azhar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thread throttling; Energy Efficiency; Dynamic Voltage Frequency Scaling DVFS ; Quality of Service; Heterogeneous multiprocessor; Soft real time systems.; Resource management; Core migration;

    Sammanfattning : Traditionally, applications are executed without the notion of a computational deadline and often use all available system resources, which leads to higher energy consumption. User specification of Quality of Service (QoS) constraints, in terms of completion time and solution quality, opens up for allocation of just enough resources to an application to finish just in time and thereby save energy.

  2. 2. Techniques to Tighten the Upper Bound on the ExecutionTime of Task-based Parallel Applications

    Författare :Petros Voudouris; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Scheduling; Multiprocessor; WCET; Uniform; Hard; multicore; Related; DAG; Real-Time; Dynamic; Unrelated; Makespan; Homogeneous; Parallel; Identical;

    Sammanfattning : To use multiprocessors in hard real-time systems, schedulability analysis is needed to provide formally proven guarantees for the timing behavior of the system. Programming models for parallel applications, such as OpenMP, use pragmas to specify parts of the application as parallel tasks, for example, a function or a body of a loop. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Scheduling techniques to improve the worst-case execution time of real-time parallel applications on heterogeneous platforms

    Författare :Petros Voudouris; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; parallel applications; global; work-conserving; federated; heterogeneous multiprocessors; response time; Hard real-time systems; unrelated model; DAG; makespan;

    Sammanfattning : The key to providing high performance and energy-efficient execution for hard real-time applications is the time predictable and efficient usage of heterogeneous multiprocessors. However, schedulability analysis of parallel applications executed on unrelated heterogeneous multiprocessors is challenging and has not been investigated adequately by earlier works. LÄS MER

  4. 4. A model-based design approach for heterogeneous NoC-based MPSoCs on FPGA

    Författare :Francesco Robino; Johnny Öberg; Shashi Kumar; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :System-level design; platform-based designembedded systems; field programmable gate arrays; integrated circuit design; integrated circuit modelling; network-on-chip; FPGA; NoC-based MPSoC; Simulink; common semantics domain; dataflow applications; design flow; embedded system; multiprocessor systems; network-on-chip; Computational modeling; Field programmable gate arrays; Mathematical model; Program processors; Prototypes; Semantics; ;

    Sammanfattning : Network-on-chip (NoC) based multi-processor systems-on-chip (MPSoCs) are promising candidates for future multi-processor embedded platforms, which are expected to be composed of hundreds of heterogeneous processing elements (PEs) to potentially provide high performances. However, together with the performances, the systems complexity will increase, and new high level design techniques will be needed to efficiently model, simulate, debug and synthesize them. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Runtime Management of Multiprocessor Systems for Fault Tolerance, Energy Efficiency and Load Balancing

    Författare :Stavros Tzilis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fault Tolerance; Algorithms; Runtime Management; Multiprocessors; Performance; Adaptive Systems; Load Balancing; Energy Efficiency;

    Sammanfattning : Efficiency of modern multiprocessor systems is hurt by unpredictable events: aging causes permanent faults that disable components; application spawnings and terminations taking place at arbitrary times, affect energy proportionality, causing energy waste; load imbalances reduce resource utilization, penalizing performance. This thesis demonstrates how runtime management can mitigate the negative effects of unpredictable events, making decisions guided by a combination of static information known in advance and parameters that only become known at runtime.
